Welcome to some of my data visualization projects

This page highlights my ability to design clear, professional, and analytically useful data visualizations.
The figures presented here are not intended solely as final results, but as demonstrations of methodological choices—such as data transformation, visual encoding, annotation, and layout—that support accurate interpretation and effective communication.

Together, these examples reflect my emphasis on clarity, accessibility, and reproducibility in data-driven work.

Visulization of American Housing

The Homelessness Crisis

Individual Emergency Shelter Beds Per Homeless Individual

When looking at emergency shelter capacity relative to the homeless population, clear regional disparities emerge. States shown in red face shortages, with fewer than one shelter bed per homeless individual, while blue states indicate relative higher capacity. This visualization highlights structural differences in how states address homelessness and emergency housing needs. The data used for this visualization was gathered from HUD data¹ and a yearly report created by the World Population review.²

Visulization of The American Healthcare Crisis

The Medical Debt Crisis

Medicaid Adult Coverage Expansion and Debt

In this next section I will be investigating the differences in the COVID-19 Medicaid subsidies expansion and medical debt.

This bar chart compares medical debt collection rates across U.S. states by Medicaid expansion status in 2023, using data from Medicaid.com³ and The Commonwealth Fund⁴. States are grouped by expansion status and benchmarked against the national average.

States that did not expand Medicaid show higher rates of medical debt in collections relative to both the national average and expansion states. While this does not provide causal evidence, this figure provides a quick, illustrative snapshot that highlights disparities linked to health care access and motivates deeper policy analysis.

Do We Respect Our Elders?

As the average American ages, increased expenditures into elderly care have been experienced. But this raises the question, what is our care capacity and what are our healthcare outcomes?

General Population Trends

Before tackling if an elder care crisis exists, one must first ask, what have the general population trends been in the United States.

These three plots demonstrate how the American population has been aging continuously since 1850. The mean age has increased from ~20 to ~39 years. Further sections will investigate how an aging population has created areas of policy innovation and policy failure. The data for these three plots were obtained from the US Decennial Census⁵ via the IPUMS USA database⁶.
